Chapter 539: Don't Love Too Humblely

Mu Jiaojiao immediately turned over and sat up. "You're gone, but you've crossed the line, have you ever thought about the consequences?"

"Let's talk about it first, who still thinks about the consequences at this time? Anyway, in the end, they will not die for their crimes. All he was thinking about was that he could let go of the scene of a big battle with the Hu people, Cui Pu was very excited, where could he care about anything else? Soon the armor was put on, and he strode out.

Mu Jiaojiao hurriedly put on a dress and got out of bed, sent him to the door, and saw his figure disappear into the vast night, she shook her head and turned back.

It's just that this night is destined to be a bad night's sleep.

Early the next morning, the eldest lady came to say goodbye, but Cui Pu was gone, and when she saw that Da Langjun was not there, she immediately asked, "Daddy?

"Yes. Mu Jiaojiao nodded.

"You left last night?Leaving in such a hurry, is there anything important?" In the past two years, I have followed Cui Pu to see the real battle scene, and the eldest lady knew that the reason why Cui Pu didn't call her was that it was definitely inconvenient for her to go, so the situation must be very serious. She was inevitably a little anxious.

"Yes, it was the envoy of Anjiedu who led his troops to be besieged outside, and he went to help relieve the siege. Mu Jiaojiao didn't hide it from her.

The eldest lady looked stunned when she heard this, then pursed her red lips and did not say more. On this day, she snuggled up to Mu Jiaojiao and did not leave.

On the third day, Cui Pu and Da Langjun were able to turn back. They were accompanied by Guo Yang and Li Xiang and a few young men. Of course, they all had wounds on their bodies.

Over the years, Mu Jiaojiao has become accustomed to such a situation. Seeing that they had returned, she hurriedly ordered someone to prepare medicinal herbs to help them bandage their wounds. Cui Pu is naturally in charge of Mu Jiaojiao personally.

While giving him medicine on his injured arm, Cui Pu also used his other intact arm to describe the situation to her: "Let me tell you, the situation was really thrilling at that time! The Turks were determined to kill him this time, and they actually sent 20,000 men to surround them in one go. Envoy An Jiedu thought it was just a small battle, but he brought 10,000 horses with him, and 1,000 of them were traitors!

"So you arrived in time to turn the tide?" asked Mu Jiaojiao.

Cui Pu smiled awkwardly: "No." ”

"Huh?"

"I want to turn the tide. It's a pity that I still don't have much experience in this kind of big operation, and when I arrived at the scene, I realized how busy I was. And then the Hengsai army arrived, and they didn't have much contact with the envoy before, but as soon as the talent arrived, they began to deploy tactics in an orderly manner, and the two teams of men and horses coordinated just right. On the other hand, I could only stand and watch stupidly for a long time, but then I finally found a trick and quickly brought someone to participate. Cui Pu said, his voice getting quieter and quieter, "So although the Anjiedu envoy was rescued in the end, I really didn't have much credit." ”

Not only did he not make much merit, but he also injured his arm.

Mu Jiaojiao couldn't help but laugh at the beginning.

Cui Pu also knew that he was not glorious today, so he lowered his head: "Over the years, I have been commanding those armies under my tent to deal with the Tibetans and Turks, and most of them have been successful, I thought that I already had the level of a general." But today's battle made me realize that I would only command a small group of men and horses to fight alone. Once the scene is bigger and more people are involved, I can't help it. I'm still too tender!"

Even, his ability to coordinate operations is not as good as Guo Yang and Li Xiang, who are only about 20 hairy boys.

That's what frustrates him the most.

Isn't this nonsense? You, a halfway monk, have only started to take charge of the military in the past few years, and those methods have been slowly explored by yourself. And Guo Yan and they were born in a military family, and they have followed their elders on the battlefield since they were young, and their tactics and strategies are all obtained through hands-on practice, but they are not much more down-to-earth than you?

To put it bluntly, if he can leave with someone today, she already thinks it's good enough.

However, for the sake of him being deeply hit, Mu Jiaojiao didn't hit him more, and only said softly: "It's good to be aware of your own shortcomings." If you look back and think about it, you think that you have failed, and what needs to be improved, analyze all these clearly, and then overcome them one by one, then you will be fine. You don't have to compare yourself with those who have been in the barracks since you were a child, you just need to improve your tomorrow self compared to today's self, and that's enough!"

"You're right! Since I've found a shortcoming, I'll just fill it up. There is still a chance now, and I still have time to make progress slowly!" Cui Pu was deeply encouraged, and nodded busily.

The two of them were talking inside, but they heard a sudden commotion outside. Faintly, it seems that the voice of the eldest lady can still be heard.

Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao glanced at each other, and Cui Pu immediately stood up. Mu Jiaojiao pressed him back: "You stay here honestly, I'll take a look." Then he quickly turned around and went out.

Outside, Da Langjun, Guo Yang, Li Xiang and a few more seriously injured young people gathered together, and Hongdou and a group of maids and servants were cleaning their wounds.

It's just that now these people all stood up, looking at the pair of boys and girls who were coldly confronting each other over there with strange expressions - the eldest lady and Li Xiang.

"I'm doing it for your own good, too. Your arms are about to break, and it's better to hang them in bandages. The eldest lady whispered.

"No, I don't. It's just a small injury, and it will be fine in two days. Li Xiang said.

The eldest lady was so anxious that her eyes were red. "I'm doing it for your own good, why don't you listen? Do you have to wait until this arm is gone?"

Li Xiang didn't start. "I've suffered this injury many times, aren't they all healed?"

"But I didn't see it before, but this time I saw it, I can't let you be sloppy!"

"My injury, my own free mind in my own heart, you don't have to worry about it!"

"You!" the eldest lady clenched her fists angrily, "Li Xiang, don't bite Lu Dongbin, you don't know the hearts of good people!"

"I really don't need your kindness. Li Xiang said coldly.

The eldest lady's eyes clearly saw two bean-sized tears whirling.

"What's going on?" Seeing this, Mu Jiaojiao immediately spoke.

Everyone is no stranger to Mu Jiaojiao, and over the years, Mu Jiaojiao has to go to various armies almost every year to help everyone test the level of military doctors, so naturally he has some contact with everyone. So seeing Mu Jiaojiao coming, this group of young people got up and saluted one after another.

Li Xiang is naturally no exception.

Seeing A-Niang coming, the eldest lady finally put away her tears and called softly: "A-Niang." ”

Mu Jiaojiao continued to ask, "What the hell is going on?"

The eldest lady said: "I said that his bones were injured, and it was better to put a splint on it to protect it carefully, but he didn't listen." I don't care, he doesn't care, he has to do it his own way!"

Mu Jiaojiao looked at Li Xiang again, and Li Xiang lowered his head: "It's just a small injury, it's really nothing." ”

"You don't know how to heal, so of course you don't think it's a big deal. But when it comes to treatment, I think it's better for you to follow the doctor's instructions. The doctor knows best what is best for you. Mu Jiaojiao said lightly.

Li Xiang stopped talking, and the eldest lady's eyes were shining.

After saying this, Mu Jiaojiao said again: "Since you don't believe in the medical skills of the eldest lady, then let me show you!"

Mu Jiaojiao is an elder. She made such a request, Li Xiang didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly asked her to check his wounds.

Mu Jiaojiao examined her carefully, and said, "Your arm has been injured many times, abrasions, lacerations, and breaks. But fortunately, you are still young, and the military doctor is still able to deal with it in a timely manner, so you can still be as flexible as before. It's just that since something has happened, it will definitely leave traces. Now, every time it's rainy, do you still feel a dull pain in the previous break?"

Li Xiang nodded. "Yes. ”

"That's what your body is warning you that it can't stand up to your desperate tossing. It has damaged you so many times, and it has become a little more fragile than a normal person's bones, and you should take good care of it. This time your injury is not serious, but since the wound is near the previous fracture, it is better to be more careful. You don't want to fall ill at a young age and not be able to go to war again at the age of thirty, right?"

Li Xiang's face immediately changed when he heard this.

"Is it really that serious?"

"What do you think?"

Li Xiang hurriedly nodded: "Then I'll still bandage it with a splint!"

When the eldest lady heard this, she immediately rejoiced, and hurriedly beckoned someone to bring the splint and gauze, and made a gesture to help him bandage it herself. Seeing this, Li Xiang had a touch of resistance in his eyes.

When Mu Jiaojiao saw it, she grabbed the eldest lady's hand: "You come with me." ”

The eldest lady was about to reach out to grab the splint, she looked at Mu Jiaojiao puzzled: "Auntie, can you say something later?"

"No, I can't. Now I have something to say to you. Mu Jiaojiao said coldly, and dragged her away.

Seeing this, Hongdou hurriedly stepped forward: "Li Langjun, let's let the maid come and put a splint on you!"

"Okay, thank you. Li Xiang hurriedly breathed a sigh of relief and thanked her respectfully.

Red Bean smiled lightly, then lowered his head and got busy.

Mu Jiaojiao took the eldest lady inside, but did not go to where Cui Pu was, but went directly into her living room.

"A-Niang, what are you bringing me here for!" The eldest lady has not flown here until now, and she can't help but look back frequently.

Mu Jiaojiao picked up a mirror and handed it to her: "Look at what you look like now!"

The eldest lady took it and looked at it puzzled, and when she saw the little lady with red eyes and an anxious face reflected in it, she was stunned.

Mu Jiaojiao's cold voice immediately came: "Look at yourself, but there is still a little bit of the grace and calmness of the little lady of the Boling Cui clan?

The eldest lady bowed her head in shame.

Mu Jiaojiao continued: "As a woman, you are already weak enough, so in terms of dealing with others, you need to insist on standing your own position, and be upright first, so that others can look at you." Especially in the affairs of men and women, even country girls should not love so humblely, otherwise it will be a blasphemy against themselves and a blasphemy against your feelings. In a relationship, if both men and women can't even do the most basic equality of looking at each other, then you might as well give up! You can't even lose yourself in order to be good to someone. ”

These words were like a thunderbolt exploding overhead, shaking the eldest lady's body and tensing up suddenly.

Mu Jiaojiao patted her head again: "You have grown up and have your own ideas, neither I nor your father will stop you from doing what you want to do." It's just that if you want to humiliate yourself like this, I will not agree to it first. I'd rather take you with me for the rest of my life than allow you to go to a man and make yourself the way you are now!"

With that, she turned and walked away.

The eldest lady stood alone for a long time before she slowly came back to her senses.

turned her head to see that she was the only one in the living room, Mu Jiaojiao had already left, and she had taken everyone away.

The eldest lady was calm, and then she turned around and walked back slowly.

Back in the front hall, Li Xiang's arm had been fixed with a splint and hung around his neck with gauze. Guo Yang and several other teenagers had also cleaned up their wounds, and several people were talking quietly together.

Seeing the eldest lady appear, Li Xiang's eyes flashed slightly, and he quickly turned his head, but the teenagers all laughed.

The eldest lady couldn't help lowering her eyes and slowly raised her feet and walked over. It's just that she went straight past Li Xiang and his party, but listened to Da Langjun's side.

"Is the wound bandaged, does it still hurt?" she asked softly.

"It still hurts a little. Seeing her appear beside him, Da Langjun was a little confused.

The eldest lady said: "It's okay, I'll ask someone to make your favorite red bean cake, and you won't hurt if you eat it." After that, he looked back at the people and said, "I'll prepare one for you too!"

Then Shi Shiran left.

The face was indifferent, the back was high, and a high coldness that rejected people thousands of miles away spontaneously, which inexplicably made this group of laughing teenagers put away their smiling faces.

Seeing her figure leave, Li Xiang's originally misty eyes suddenly dimmed, and a strange look flashed away.
